I checked and I was wrong, based on the option offered years ago in Busybox and Buildroot (/usr/bin was a symlink to /bin and /usr/sbin was an symlink to /sbin). I'm amazed; I find this amazingly stupid. It just makes no sense because /usr is a nonsense - /usr means "users' directory", which is now /home) - and I was hopping to see it disapear. On the opposite, it becomes the actual root of the OS. I now understand the concern of Steve: it looks like the beginning of an attempt to force initramfs on people, even if it is not effective yet. There remains the option to make /usr a symlink to /, let dpkg use it blindly and ignore it in real life. -- Didier -- Didier _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
